The funeral will be held Thursday for the police officer who was one of four people killed in Monday's mass shooting at a Midtown Manhattan office building.

Officials said the gunman fatally shot himself after his attack, which set off a chaotic scene that rippled out into the heart of Manhattan during rush hour.
